Ezekiel 18
1 And the word of the Lord was maad to me,
Ekigambo kya Mukama Katonda ne kinzijira, n’aŋŋamba nti,
2 and he seide, What is it, that ye turnen a parable among you in to this prouerbe, in the lond of Israel, and seien, Fadris eeten a bittir grape, and the teeth of sones ben an egge, ether astonyed?
“Mutegeeza ki bwe mugerera olugero luno ensi ya Isirayiri nti, “‘Bakitaabwe balidde ezabbibu ezikaawa, n’amannyo g’abaana ganyenyeera’?
3 Y lyue, seith the Lord God, this parable schal no more be in to a prouerbe to you in Israel.
“Nga bwe ndi omulamu, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda, temuliddayo kugera lugero olwo mu Isirayiri.
4 Lo! alle soulis ben myne; as the soule of the fadir, so and the soule of the sone is myn. Thilke soule that doith synne, schal die.
Buli kiramu, kyange; obulamu bw’omuzadde n’obw’omwana bwonna nabwo bwange.
5 And if a man is iust, and doith doom and riytfulnesse,
“Emmeeme eyonoona ye erifa, omuntu bw’abeera omutuukirivu n’akola ebyalagirwa era ebituufu;
6 etith not in hillis, and reisith not hise iyen to the idols of the hous of Israel; and defoulith not the wijf of his neiybore, and neiyeth not to a womman defoulid with vncleene blood;
nga talya mu masabo agali ku nsozi newaakubadde okusinza bakatonda abalala ab’ennyumba ya Isirayiri; n’atayenda ne mukazi wa muliraanwa we, newaakubadde okwebaka n’omukazi ali mu biseera bye eby’abakyala;
7 and makith not a man sori, yeldith the wed to the dettour, rauyschith no thing bi violence, yyueth his breed to the hungri, and hilith a nakid man with a cloth;
omuntu atalyazaamaanya muntu yenna, naye asasula ebbanja lye lyonna, atanyaga muntu yenna, naye emmere ye agigabira abayala, n’ayambaza n’abali obwereere;
8 leeneth not to vsure, and takith not more; turneth awei his hond fro wickidnesse, and makith trewe dom bitwixe man and man;
atawola lwa magoba newaakubadde okutwala ensimbi ezisukkamu mu ezo ze yawola. Yeewala okukola ekibi, era asala emisango egy’ensonga.
9 and goith in my comaundementis, and kepith my domes, that he do treuthe; this is a iust man, he schal lyue in lijf, seith the Lord God.
Agoberera ebiragiro byange, n’akuuma amateeka gange n’obwesigwa, oyo ye muntu omutuukirivu era aliba mulamu,” bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
10 That if he gendrith a sone, a theef, shedinge out blood,
“Bw’aba n’omwana omulalu, ayiwa omusaayi, oba akola ebifaanana ng’ebyo,
11 and doith oon of thes thingis, and sotheli not doing alle these thingis, but etinge in hillis, and defoulynge the wijf of his neiybore;
newaakubadde nga kitaawe ebyo tabikola: “N’alya mu masabo agali ku nsozi, n’ayenda ku mukazi wa muliraanwa we,
12 makynge soreuful a nedy man and pore, rauyschynge raueyns, not yeldinge a wed, reisynge hise iyen to idols, doynge abhomynacioun; yiuynge to vsure, and takynge more;
n’anyigiriza omwavu n’omunaku, n’okubba n’abba, n’atasasula kye yeeyama, n’asinza bakatonda abalala, n’akola eby’ekivve,
13 whether he schal lyue? he schal not lyue; whanne he hath do alle these abhomynable thingis, he schal die bi deth, his blood schal be in hym.
n’awola ng’asuubira amagoba, oba n’okutwala ensimbi ezisukka mu ezo ze yawola; omuntu ng’oyo aliba mulamu? Taliba mulamu. Kubanga akoze ebintu ebyo byonna eby’ekivve, kyaliva attibwa, n’omusaayi gwe guliba ku mutwe gwe ye.
14 That if he gendrith a sone, which seeth alle the synnes of his fadir, whiche he dide, and dredith, and doith noon lijk tho;
“Naye bw’aba n’omuzzukulu, alaba ebibi byonna kitaawe by’akola, n’atakola bya ngeri eyo;
15 etith not on hillis, and reisith not hise iyen to the idols of the hous of Israel; and defoulith not the wijf of his neiybore,
“N’atalya mu masabo agali ku nsozi newaakubadde okusinza bakatonda abalala ab’ennyumba ya Isirayiri, n’atayenda na mukazi wa muliraanwa we,
16 and makith not sori a man, witholdith not a wed, and rauyschith not raueyn, yyueth his breed to the hungri, and hilith the nakid with a cloth;
atanyigiriza muntu yenna newaakubadde okusaba amagoba ku bbanja lye yawola, atabba, naye agabira emmere abayala n’abali obwereere n’abambaza.
17 turneth a wei his hond fro the wrong of a pore man, takith not vsure and ouerhabundaunce, `that is, no thing more than he lente, and doith my domes, and goith in my comaundementis; this sone schal not die in the wickidnesse of his fadir, but he schal lyue in lijf.
Yeekuuma obutakola kibi, n’atalya magoba ku bbanja newaakubadde okutwala ensimbi ezisukiridde, era akuuma amateeka gange n’agoberera n’ebiragiro byange. Talifa olw’ebibi bya kitaawe, naye aliba mulamu.
18 For his fadir made fals caleng, and dide violence to his brother, and wrouyte yuel in the myddis of his puple, lo! he is deed in his wickidnesse.
Naye kitaawe alifa olw’ebibi bye ye kubanga yalyazaamanya, n’anyaga muliraanwa we, n’akola ebitaali birungi mu bantu banne.
19 And ye seien, Whi berith not the sone the wickidnesse of the fadir? That is to seie, for the sone wrouyte doom and riytfulnesse, he kepte alle my comaundementis, and dide tho, he schal lyue in lijf.
“Mubuuza nti, ‘Lwaki omwana tabonaabona olw’ebibi bya kitaawe?’ Omwana bw’aba akoze eby’ensonga era ebituufu, ng’agoberedde ebiragiro byange, aliba mulamu.
20 Thilke soule that doith synne, schal die; the sone schal not bere the wickidnesse of the fadir, and the fadir schal not bere the wickednesse of the sone; the riytfulnesse of a iust man schal be on hym, and the wickidnesse of a wickid man schal be on hym.
Emmeeme eyonoona ye erifa. Omwana talibonaabona olw’ebibi bya kitaawe, so ne kitaawe talibonaabona olw’ebibi eby’omwana we. Obutuukirivu bw’omuntu omutuukirivu bulibalirwa ye, n’obutali butuukirivu bw’oyo atali mutuukirivu bulibalirwa ye.
21 Forsothe if a wickid man doith penaunce of alle hise synnes whiche he wrouyte, and kepith alle myn heestis, and doith dom and riytfulnesse, he schal lyue bi lijf, and schal not die.
“Naye omuntu atali mutuukirivu bw’alikyuka n’alekeraawo okukola ebibi byonna, n’akuuma ebiragiro byange byonna n’akola eby’ensonga era ebituufu, aliba mulamu, talifa.
22 Y schal not haue mynde of alle his wickidnessis whiche he wrouyte; he schal lyue in his riytfulnesse which he wrouyte.
Tewaliba kyonoono na kimu ku ebyo bye baakola ebirijjukirwa, naye olw’eby’obutuukirivu bye baliba bakoze, baliba balamu.
23 Whether the deth of the wickid man is of my wille, seith the Lord God, and not that he be conuertid fro his weies, and lyue?
Mulowooza nga nsanyukira okufa kw’atali mutuukirivu? Bw’ayogera Mukama. Sisinga kusanyuka nnyo bwe ndaba ng’akyuse okuva mu ngeri ze n’aba omulamu?
24 Forsothe if a iust man turneth awey hym silf fro his riytfulnesse, and doith wickidnesse bi alle hise abhomynaciouns, which a wickid man is wont to worche, whether he schal lyue? Alle hise riytfulnessis whiche he dide, schulen not be had in mynde; in his trespassyng bi which he trespasside, and in his synne which he synnede, he schal die in tho.
“Naye omuntu omutuukirivu bw’alekeraawo okukola eby’obutuukirivu, n’akola eby’ekivve bye bimu n’eby’omuntu atali mutuukirivu, aliba mulamu? Tewaliba ne kimu ku ebyo eby’obutuukirivu bye yakola, ebirijjukirwa: Olw’obutaba mwesigwa aliba n’omusango, era n’olw’ebibi bye yakola, alifa.
25 And ye seiden, The weie of the Lord is not euene. Therfor, the hous of Israel, here ye, whether my weie is not euene, and not more youre weies ben schrewid?
“Mugamba nti, ‘Mukama si mwenkanya.’ Kaakano muwulire mwe ennyumba ya Isirayiri, enkola yange y’etali ya bwenkanya oba mmwe mutali benkanya?
26 For whanne a riytful man turneth awei hym silf fro his riytfulnesse, and doith wickidnesse, he schal die in it, he schal die in the vnriytwisnesse which he wrouyte.
Omuntu omutuukirivu bw’aleka okukola ebikolwa bye eby’obutuukirivu n’akola ebibi, mw’alifiira, kubanga ebibi by’akoze bye birimuleetera okufa.
27 And whanne a wickid man turneth awei him silf fro his wickidnesse which he wrouyte, and doith dom and riytfulnesse, he schal quykene his soule.
Naye bw’alikyuka okuva mu butali butuukirivu bwe bw’akoze, n’akola eby’ensonga era ebituufu, alirokola obulamu bwe.
28 For he biholdinge and turnynge awei hym silf fro alle hise wickidnessis which he wrouyte, schal lyue in lijf, and schal not die.
Era bw’alirowooza ku bibi byonna by’akoze, n’akyuka n’alekeraawo okubikola, mazima ddala aliba mulamu, talifa.
29 And the sones of Israel seien, The weie of the Lord is not euene. Whether my weies ben not euene, ye hous of Israel, and not more youre weies ben schrewid?
Naye oluvannyuma ennyumba ya Isirayiri ne mwogera nti, ‘Ekkubo lya Mukama si lya bwenkanya.’ Mmwe ennyumba ya Isirayiri, engeri zange ze zitali za bwenkanya? Engeri zammwe si ze zitali za bwenkanya?
30 Therfor, thou hous of Israel, Y schal deme ech man bi hise weies, seith the Lord God. Turne ye togidere, and do ye penaunce for alle youre wickidnessis, and wickidnesse schal not be to you in to falling.
“Kyendiva mbasalira omusango, mmwe ennyumba ya Isirayiri, buli muntu ng’ebikolwa byammwe bwe biri, bw’ayogera Mukama. Mwenenye, muleke ebikolwa ebitali bya butuukirivu, oba nga ssi weewaawo ebibi byammwe biribaleetera okuzikirira.
31 Caste awei fro you alle youre trespassingis, bi whiche ye trespassiden, and make ye a newe herte and a newe spirit to you, and whi schulen ye die, the hous of Israel?
Mweggyeeko ebikolwa byonna ebitali bya butuukirivu, bye mukoze, mufune omutima omuggya n’omwoyo omuggya. Kiki ekibaleetera okufa, mmwe ennyumba ya Isirayiri?
32 For Y nyle the deeth of hym that dieth, seith the Lord God; turne ye ayen, and lyue ye.
Sisanyukira kufa kwa muntu yenna, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda. Mwenenye mube balamu.”
